Eddie Vedder: Fatherhood Has 'Fueled My Anger'

Alternative-rock icon Eddie Vedder spearheaded a '90s Seattle musical sound around adolescent angst. Now a 40-something father of a toddler, Vedder says he hasn't mellowed.

"When I had a child, everyone was telling me that I was going to see the world through her eyes, and everything was going to get this nice gloss to it," Vedder told reporters at Tuesday's Into the Wild press conference in West Hollywood. "I kept waiting for that to happen, and thought there was a real problem with me that it wasn't."
